You'd best believe we got our hands on the two-page review we nabbed in @debugmag.com for Echoes of Mystralia. What can we say? We’re suckers for print. If a two-page spread with your name on it sounds good to you, you know where we are:https://bit.ly/big-games-machine-get-in-touch

Hot on the heels of SGDA’s fantastic Games Day event in Dundee, we were treated to Get Into Games by @intogames.bsky.social Two friends of Debug @alastairlow.bsky.social and @mattstark256.bsky.social (who made Viewfinder, the subject of our first cover story) shared anecdotes about indie game dev!

With Debug #17 fully shipped, we’re going on a road trip to Scotland! Norwich to Dundee, that’s about 8 hours with usual traffic. We might need to stop half way for a meal and a rest… Any recommendations? Leeds? Newcastle?

Red alert. Red alert! We don't have a pet photo for Debug #18 - it's the one thing we need before it goes to the printers! Does you have a photo of your pet with an issue of the magazine? Now's your chance to give them indie gaming stardom

By the way, we’re always on the lookout for writers of interesting gaming features… We are very much indie, and there are also limits to what will fit into a print magazine, but we do pay decent rates! Our standard rate is £300 for a researched 1500 word piece. Transparency is good, folks!

We are deeply saddened to share the news that our colleague Tim Smith passed away earlier this week. Tim joined Debug as Sub Editor earlier this year, and though our time working together was far too short, we were hugely grateful to have someone of his experience and knowledge as part of the team.

The folks at Spelkollektivet have been kind enough to host us multiple times over the years, including when we were brand new with no audience. They’re in it for the right reasons, and deserve to exist long into the future. If you can help out, we know they’d be incredibly grateful!

We’ve spoken to just about everyone about this over the last 4 years, and have some thoughts. Bias out the way first, Debug was envisioned as a mid-scale event long before the magazine existed, and we’ve hosted a number of profitable industry gatherings (approx 300 attendees each) over the years.

Nobody is really talking about this, but the games industry was treated like a gold rush during the pandemic Player numbers were up and oil-backed economies started buying into games as part of a future beyond fossil fuels. Then the demand cooled
